Skincare and hair care are important parts of many people’s daily routine. However, many of the products commonly used for skin and hair are actually laden with chemicals, unnatural, and bad for the environment. Often times, such products are also quite bad for the hair, stripping it of its natural oils, and for the skin, which can absorb toxins and chemicals. Everyday use of such products can have a negative affect on both one’s appearance and one’s health.

If you want great hair and skin without the chemicals, luckily, the unnatural products found in drug-stores and department stores are not your only option. Moroccan oil (also known as Argan oil) is an oil that comes from the Argan tree found in Morocco. Pure Argan oil has been used for years by woman in Morocco for cosmetic purposes, as well as in cooking.

Moroccan Argan Oil is great for both hair and skin, as it contains very high levels of vitamin E (also known as tocopherols) and fatty acids, among other nutritive ingredients. The vitamin E, fatty acids, and other nutritive substances found in Moroccan oil help nourish the body, both inside and out.

Moroccan Oil can be used directly on the skin, both the body and face, as a natural moisturizer. Its antioxidants help reduce toxins and free-radicals, and keep the skin fresh and soft. People use it as a night cream to moisturize the skin overnight, and also as a protector, to keep the skin fresh when one is going out in cold, dry, windy weather. It also has anti-inflammatory qualities, which means it can be a soothing balm for muscle aches. Fortunately, it is not greasy and is absorbed easily.

Skin is not the only thing to benefit for the use of Pure Argan oil. The same qualities that make it so beneficial for the skin also offer many benefits to the hair. It can be used as a natural conditioner, or even a leave-in conditioner to strengthen, smooth, and protect the hair follicles. It can even be used in place of hair gel. Hair gels often contain ingredients such as alcohol that are drying and harmful to hair. Replacing your hair gel with a bit of Moroccan Oil can make a huge difference in the health of your hair.

You can also get many health benefits from the oil by using it in cooking. It can be used in place of olive oil or vegetable oil in a number of dishes, such as garlic bread, pasta dishes, salads, and more. When you cook with it, you are allowing all of its healthful ingredients to nourish you from the inside out. Combining that with external use compounds the benefits and results in a natural health and beauty boost all around.

In addition, when buying Pure Argan oil, you are helping protect and propagate Argan trees, which were becoming extinct due to overgrazing and firewood demands, but are now beginning to be protected due to the growing demand for the oil. When you purchase the oil, you are not only supporting your own health, but also a growing economy for the women’s cooperative in Morocco that is protecting the trees and earning a living from the oil. So why not treat yourself to a natural skin, hair, and health care product you can feel good about using?
